Title: Device for contacting high contaminated feedstocks with catalyst in an fcc unit
Inventor: HEDRICK BRIAN W
IPC: C10G11/00
Filed: 2007-08-07
Abstract: An FCC process and apparatus comprising an enlarged riser section (22) and a distributor (12) in an elevated position and with an opening (86) in its tip (88) away from a riser wall (23) may reduce coke build-up along the interior walls of a riser (20). Catalytic mixing may be improved, which could reduce riser coking by increasing hydrocarbon contact with catalyst before contacting the riser wall. Increasing the distance between the introduction of the hydrocarbon and the riser wall may increase this likelihood for hydrocarbon-catalyst contact. Highly contaminated hydrocarbons cause greater coking than do normal hydrocarbons, and this FCC process and apparatus may be effective in decreasing riser coking on heavy hydrocarbons.
Patent CA-2660817-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DE NARDIS MAURIZIO
IPC: H01L31/058
Filed: 2007-04-19
Abstract: Object of the invention is a system composed of a special Tile, adequate to cover the whole roof, thermally insulating, ventilated, with no environmental impact, producing solar and photovoltaic energy, adequate for the production of hot water and/or electrical energy. The two funcions, thermal and photovoltaic, are meant to be operated in synergy, obtaining the best result, or independently. For instance, the photovoltaic can help the thermal system, in case the covered surfaces are too small for the heating needs of the building, or in non-ideal climates, sending part of the electrical energy to electrical water heaters positioned in the boiler, to complement hot water production during low irradiation seasons. The roof thus obtained is optimal in any climate; in areas subject to snowfall the snow will melt on the tiles that anyway develop heat; in hot areas during the summer very high temperatures will be achieved, thus it will be possible to transform with heat exchangers the heat produced in cooling, obtaining air conditioning or cold water below the floor. Also, it will be possible to obtain heated water for pools from the excess of hot water both in the summer and in the winter.

Patent CA-2675707-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FERGUSON JAMES RIDDELL
IPC: A42B3/30
Filed: 2008-01-08
Abstract: Impact shock absorbing material to be incorporated into protective gear or clothing. The impact shock absorbing material is a laminated material, having a shear-thickening layer and a shock absorbing layer, that is a honeycomb material. The laminated material is incorporated into protective headgear, sports gear, clothing, and a host of other articles that are worn for protection against impact shock. The shear-thickening layer shunts the local impact forces over a greater area of the underlying shock absorbing layer, thereby reducing the force at the point of impact. The vertical walls of the honeycomb layer buckle under the incoming force, thereby diffusing the direction of force away from direct alignment with the body wearing the impact-shock-absorbing material. Protective gear made of the impact shock absorbing material significantly reduces forces imparted to the body as a result of a fall, blow, or other sudden impact.

Abstract: Intended is to provide a fan type insect-pest exterminating device, which is preferable for use with the user and excellent in the insect-pest exterminating performances. In the device, therefore, an axial fan (3) is driven to suck air from an intake port (6), and the air is passed through a drug carrier (2) to contain the insect-pest exterminating component. This air is discharged from an exhaust port (7) so that it may diffuse into the air. The intake port (6) is opened in the axial direction on the side upstream of the axial fan (3). The exhaust port (7) is opened radially on the downstream side of the axial fan (3). This axial fan (3) is equipped with an annular wall (8) enclosing the axial fan (3), and an air passage (9) for establishing the communication between the exhaust port (7) and the discharge portion of the axial fan (3). Thus, the air discharged axially from the axial fan (3) is exhausted, after changed into radial directions, from the exhaust port (7).
